It was always Joe Townsend’s dream to become a pilot. And indeed, he reached his dream and became a pilot for a commercial airline. He got married and had two beautiful daughters and was living the dream until a nightmare happened one weekend.

Joe was flying his family home from a family vacation one weekend when an unexpected accident happened. The small plane Joe was flying suddenly developed engine trouble and lost power. Soon after, the plane crashed to the ground.
Prayerful Rescuers
When the rescuers arrived at the scene, they heard a cry from a child. And in front of the little girl, they realized that the pilot was also still alive. Now, the challenge of the rescuers was getting anyone out of the plane safely, considering the severe injuries it did to their bodies. But the smell of the plane fuel worried them more because it could have caused a spark or a fire at that point. And when they got them out, they prayed and left everything in God’s hands as they took them to the hospital.

Falling Into Depression
Shortly after being taken to the hospital, Joe’s youngest daughter, Tara, died. Meanwhile, Joe went into cardiac arrest, suffered a stroke, and then went into a coma. Ten days later, he finally woke up and heard the worst news he could ever hear in his entire life. The accident killed his entire family.
Joe lost all hope and fell into depression while his body was recovering. Until one day, he couldn’t take the pain anymore, and Joe cried out to the Lord. That’s when things started to change.
Watch how God turned his circumstance around!
